Rhode Island Republican Governor Don Carcieri has been selected as the keynote speaker at a fund raising banquet for the Massachusetts Family Institute. He plans to keep his commitment and share his thoughts on "traditional marriage" with the audience even though he has been urged by activists and the Democratic party to cancel his attendance.

The event is scheduled for Oct. 15 in Newton, Massachusetts and he will be addressing an organization and crowd that maintain that homosexuality is "unhealthy and destructive to society." This appearance is an affront to civil liberties, as the Governor is pandering to "sectarian extremists" as worded by the Democratic party.

Open Door Thursday is an opportunity for citizens of Rhode Island to have access to Governor Carcieri. Open Door Thursday is held on the last Thursday of each month. Appointments are made on a first-come, first-serve basis.Appointment Line: (401) 222-2080
